Verifying Installation
•
On the Transmitter and Receiver Extender units, check that the Power, Status, and Host LEDs stay
ON. If the Host or Status LEDs stay OFF, then the cabling between the Extenders may not be
installed properly or is defective.
•
For Windows users, open Device Manager* to confirm that the device has installed correctly.
Expand the entry for Universal Serial Bus controllers by clicking the "+" sign. If the device has been
installed correctly, you will find it listed as two "Generic SuperSpeed Hubs" or "3.0 Hubs". The
specific indication may vary according to the particular operating system, version and chipset being
used, but it should be clear that two additional devices are present when the USB 3.0 Extender is
connected that are not present when it is not connected.
•
For OS X users, open the System Profiler to confirm that the device has installed correctly. In the left
column under Hardware, select "USB." Inspect the panel on the right. If the device has been installed
correctly, you will find it listed as a "Hub" under the "USB 3.0 SuperSpeed Bus."
